Ist-ism, 2'41 excerpt (original 9'20)


The video Ist-ism (2018) presents a skeleton going through an identity crisis. He uses questions, associations and rhymes to try understand himself and his environment. Devoid of flesh, the harsh light over-exposes and kills the pronounced edges that had formerly framed and defined his personal image, leaving behind a vague skeletal composition. The video questions notions of collectivity and individuality, seeing the workings of the self as a complex structure made up of parts that are both connected and contradictory.
